attribute	NC_GLOBAL	summary	String	Global Ocean - Gridded In Situ reprocessed carbon observations - SOCATv2021. Surface Ocean Carbon Atlas (SOCAT) Gridded (binned) SOCAT observations, with a spatial grid of 1x1 degree and yearly in time. The gridded fields are computed from the monthly 1-degree gridded data, which uses only SOCAT datasets with Quality Control (QC) flags of A through D and SOCAT data points flagged with World Ocean Circulation Experiment (WOCE) flag values of 2. This yearly data is computed using data from the start to the end of each year as described in the summary attribute of each variable.
